Mycoplasmas are spherical with a diameter of 0.33um. D-glucose is present in the cell at a concentration of 1.0mM. Find the number of glucose molecules inside a single cell.

The answer is 1.1 x 10^4 molecules/cell, but i don’t know why. Please include units in explanation so i can see what’s canceling out.
